Benjamin Garcia and Brandon Duanes break down Booker's early struggles, the surprising impact of missing Jalen Green, and head coach Jordan Knott's puzzling rotation decisions. They question why rookies aren't getting minutes while veterans like Nigel Hayes Davis and Oso Ighodaro struggle to contribute. The hosts also evaluate Mark Williams' defensive transformation from Charlotte liability to Phoenix anchor, and debate whether the front office deserves credit or blame for the current roster construction. A Halloween-themed "trick or treat" segment rates key players and front office personnel Matt Ishbia and Brian Gregory based on their early season performance.

Tune in for honest analysis of what's working, what's broken, and whether the Suns can turn around their disappointing start before it's too late.
